Some readers are perfectly fine reading flashy, entertaining stories, but to those who are at least a bit more discerning, he “well – written“ story, again obviously in my opinion, needs to have a framework (mechanics“ as suddenly constructed as the dialogue, the setting, characterization, etc., and to me, this story does not fulfill that requirement.About the Book Half-human Cal Leandros and his brother, Niko, aren't exactly prospering with their preternatural detective agency. Again I understand Raiders can forget especially if they’re working on multiple projects, but isn’t that what the editor is therefore at least in part? I don’t have high hopes for this series, and if they weren’t in the plus catalog, I probably wouldn’t continue the series. In my opinion, with a better editor/proofreader, this could’ve been a solid five stars! The detractors: too much recapping, does the writer think we’re going to forget everything that happened in the previous book? If so, after the fourth or fifth book how much of it is going to be new contact? Also, in the first book the brothers are five years apart, now in the second book, magically they’re only two years apart. Good writing, good mechanics, too much recaping

It's a happy prospect to be spending a good part of this winter with the Mac Leod Andrews and the Leandros boys. The narrator of book 1 wasn't dreadful, but not great either Andrews is pitch-perfect in tone and has created voices for the many human and non-human characters that are always right on the money. He gives perfect voice(s) to the Sandman Slim books and Sanderson's Steelheart series, among many others I'm thrilled that Audible has gotten him to perform books 2-9 of the Leandros books. Of course, it doesn't hurt to have the ever-fabulous MacLeod Andrews narrating. evil, scary monsters and super freaks, imaginative takes on age-old supernatural legends, a little romance, a little comedy, and lots of witty banter and a great, nicely fleshed-out, very real-feeling relationship between the brothers, Cal and Niko.

Their adventures compare quite favorably with those (perhaps) more well-known series, with nice doses of epic battles of good vs. I've chewed my way through Dresden, Sandman Slim, Bobby Dollar, the Iron Druid, and many more that aren't as good, before stumbling across the Leandros brothers.
